Records and missing office files

I'm running Windows 7 on a PC brand new. I installed Office 7 a month ago. A couple of days, that I opened outlook 2007 and he said we could not open a file or data has been corrupted and I should run scanpst.exe. Yes, I did.

During this process, he said that I need to log on as an administrator. I clicked on ok. Moments later my email has arrived and everything appeared in tact. Unfortunately, my office was entirely wiped out as well as all files and folders on this subject.
Yes, I tried clicking on show desktop - the question goes much further.
As the day I discovered that all my documents, pictures, videos, etc. have disappeared as well. In addition, my entire user folder seems to be MIA.
I bought the file recovery software. I ran and restored everything and none of this is what I'm missing.
I'm scratching my head. I show hidden files, system folders, etc. so where on earth could just disappeared. When I run a search for some documents I had before it arises, but occasionally if I look recently opened a place like MS word files, it will open an old doc I had used.
I am that some experts of the art, but it's way above my head. Thank you in advance for ANY help you can provide.

If you actually logged on as an administrator?
If so this is the reason why - all of your files and folders under your user account from the administrator account.
If you do not actually log - on as an administrator, you must be precise as to what you did in fact GREEN.
Normally, Windows does not remove files and folders on its own... If you find my answer helpful, please click the button "Vote as helpful"! Thank you! My Blog

  • Why finder hide Documents and office files in the home directory of the user by activating iCloud drive? What about the behavior of Time Machine backup or third-party applications?

    I'm under MacOS Sierra. I am connected to my iCloud account. I activated the option Desktop and Documents, but I did NOT activate the option optimize Mac storage, because I wanted to make sure that all my files would be available locally, just in case, I would need to work without an internet connection.

    -J' noticed there now a menu iCloud in my sidebar in the Finder, with links to Documents and desktop.

    -J' also noticed that Documents is no longer presented in my favorites in my side bar of the Finder.

    -This last suggests that files saved in 'Documents' are not saved more on my HD... but only in iCloud, which isn't what I want.

    -Then, sailing in the Finder Macintosh HD/users / 'My account' /, I noticed that my Documents and desktop folders are more visible, as if these files are not saved in my home folder most. Which raises the question: where are My Documents and files on my HD, so they are still?

    -Using a shell session in the terminal and again navigate to/Users / 'My account' /, I noticed that my Documents and desktop folders are still there. Which suggest that records and records of office reside actually still in my home folder under users, but Finder actually hide it and present them as being stored in iCloud only disc. It's very confusing.

    This raises several questions:

    -In the first place, why Apple hide Documents and office files in the directory? Why not view these folders in iCloud and directory?

    -Whence the iCloud folder or drive, reside actually on my hard drive?

    -What time Machine. Is it still back up my document files and folders?

    -What games third-party app mirroring backup of My Documents files and folders? They still work properly? (I use Livedrive backup and Sugarsync for files mirrored across several macs).

    -How can I understand that Apple is doing with my folders and files? Some users might be happy with the iCloud drive concept, without worrying about how it works, but I don't take chances, and I want to keep a good understanding about the functioning of my system.

    Could someone explain what is exactly happening?

    With office and selected Documents, access to these files are now in the iCloud Drive, not in your home folder.

    My guess would be that they do not appear in your file because it would be confusing for many people to make them in two places.

    If you want in the Favorites, open iCloud Drive and drag them in the sidebar here.

    All about iCloud drive has been saved on your Mac. With the exception of the office and the Documents, they are in ~/Library/Mobile Documents. However, if you choose optimized storage, older documents are removed from your Mac. I don't know what is "old".

    ~/Documents and ~/desktop have new metadata indicating probably Finder does not display them in a Finder window, only in iCloud drive. They are not hidden in one of the normal methods of unix.

    I have not tested Time Machine or any other backup program. The folder still exist in your directory home, and they still have all the files, I don't think that changes anything.

  • Updates to Windows Vista on 14/05/2010. Programs and missing files.

    12 updates have been installed on 14/05/2010.  When my computer has been restarted appeared a new office and all the files and programs installed since arriving there out of the box are missing.  That's happened?

    It was probably caused by something in one or more updates - I guess you are talking 14/04/2010 (today or early this morning for the night).  I've never heard of this problem before.

    Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    If this does not work (and it should hopefully), so chances are good that the problem was caused by one or more updates and even the system restore cannot fix the problem.  Even if it works, you may return if you reinstall updates (and some may be critical or at least important).  You need to talk with the experts of the update.

    Please repost your question in the Windows Update Forum at: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/threads where the specialists of update will be more than happy to help you with your problem.  Don't forget to include in this post the exact version of Windows you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2).  Also include the names and numbers KB 12 concerned updates (I know it's a lot of typing but knowing what updates are involved will help a lot to come up with a diagnosis of the problem and we hope a solution as well).

    I hope this helps.

  • MS Office 2013 missing EXE files

    I just installed a Seagate Backup (purchased from Dell) Plus drive on my XPS 8.1 Win system.  Installed SW of backup supplied with the player.

    Now I can't open MS Office 2013 applications (Outlook, Excel, Powerpoint), but no problem with any other application installed on the PC.

    Location of the file checked programs icons to point to and .exe files are missing! (FYI, this is c: Program Files > Microsoft Office 15 > root > office 15 > OUTLOOK.) EXE, etc.)

    Now that I think of it, I had a Windows Installer update automatically yesterday, which may have caused the problem.

    Someone at - he saw this problem, and is my only solution to reinstall the applications?  I don't like this major corruption occur for unknown reasons.  Who knows what else is hidden here?

    Thanks, Nadine,.

    I just went ahead and reinstalled Office, which worked well.  Not know what caused the problem; the mod only SW was the update of windows. Solving the problems of Update site corrected MS 2 'mistakes' in the previous version. No idea why, but everything clear now.

  • I am trying to access my hard drive for some records and my file photo in windows vista after it has been formatted.

    My laptop after runing battery accident, I cannot restore and re-installed was the only solution, I thought I had backup all files, but my photo files is missing and an other files that were in my office. I need assistance to access the hard drive if possible, I said it can be done.

    If you formatted the drive and reinstalled Vista, data is almost certainly lost to conventional methods of recovery...

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

    If the above does not resolve the problem, you will need to contact the Date recovery Experts.
    Be warned: they are very $$$

    See you soon.

    My PC crashed. Restored on a new record and a new installation of FireFox. I can still access all the files on the old drive. How do I take the old bookmarks if no backup exists, or has been completed? Does not save bookmarks of FireFox auto? If, then what is the file name and where is normally stored by FireFox?

    In fact, it can be easier...

    If you have the old drive connected as, say, drive E, go to:

    E:\Users\username
    

    Then click in the address bar and paste it after this and press ENTER to open it:

    \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
    

    Normally, you have only one file, which has a random string followed by "default." In this case, click on this file and find the subfolder bookmarkbackups.

    If you find multiple profile folders, look inside to find the most recently updated backups.

    keimanzero,

    Comcast of Norton Security Suite version is installed? If Yes, who and perhaps malware is most likely to cause questions you have published, in particular the failure of the restoration of the system.
    First, configure the system to boot - How to solve a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
    NOTE: Start-up mode minimum state all the 3rd party firewalls will be disabled. Open Control Panel > Windows Firewall to make sure that the native firewall of Windows 7 is now on.

    Download and Save the update system (or CheckSUR) tool. You will need to download the specific Version of CheckSUR corresponding to the architecture of the system to Windows 7. If you do not know the architecture of the system, and then click the link that says "Click here to show or hide the instructions step by step with images" under method 2: download the update directly system preparation tool from Microsoft Download Center .
    Description of the preparation tool system update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2

    Once the download is complete, close all open programs and browsers. Now, run CheckSUR with the system connected to the internet because it will download the .cab for system files. Reboot once CheckSUR is complete.

    Secondly, I suggest that you run the File Checker system while in the same clean boot state.
    To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start and type cmd in the field search programs and files .
    2. Right click on cmd.exe in the programs of list, and then choose 'run as administrator '.
      If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    3. At the command prompt, enter the following line exactly as written including the space between thec and the/and then press ENTER:
      sfc/scannow

    When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problems facing the system have been resolved.

    If they are not, you will need to contact Norton support for the version of Norton Internet Security Comcast to get help, or just uninstall NIS, run the Norton removal tool (right click Norton_Removal_Tool.exe, choose "Run as Administrator"), reboot and then check to see if the problems are still occurring.
